The Bentley That Lost Its Wheel in Manhattan.

When talking about luxury in cars, Bentley is a top contender. I assume that it is also highly regarded when it comes to reliability. But see what happened to the Bentley car in in these pictures. I am sure that the driver - most likely not the owner - did not expect this kind of a problem. While taking a turn from Park Avenue into this Manhattan cross street, the left wheel fell off. The car was screaming while the wheel's disc was scratching the asphalt underneath... Luckily there were no injuries and no one was hurt... well, except the Bentley brand image which was badly tarnished!
